Glamorgan's Jersey batter Asa Tribe says he is "feeling good" after leading his side to victory over Gloucestershire.

Tribe hit seven sixes in his 28-ball innings in what was his best ever score for Glamorgan.
"I'm feeling good about my cricket at the moment," said Tribe, whose score was his second best T20 total after a 73 not out he scored for Jersey against the United States in July 2022.
The game was just his seventh appearance for Glamorgan in T20 competition.
Tribe, who made his international debut as a 17-year-old, moved to the club in October 2023 and has also made eight first class appearances for the Welsh side since his debut in September 2024.
"The boys set the game up nicely for me to come in and do what I did today," he added to BBC Wales.
"I've only had a few games for Glam so far but I'm happy with how I played today."

Arsenal 26yo nominated for PFA Player of the Year
Declan Rice has been named in the top six for the PFA Players' Player of the Year award for 2025, following a strong campaign with Arsenal. Photo byThe PFA confirmed their top-six players for the Players' Player of the Year award on Friday, with Declan Rice joining Manchester United's Bruno Fernandes, Newcastle United's Alexander Isak, Chelsea's Cole Palmer, and Liverpool's Alexis Mac Allister and Mohamed Salah. Advertisement The winner of the award will be announced later this year, with the ceremony taking place at the Manchester Opera House on August 19th. Arsenal face Manchester United at Old Trafford on August 17th, so Rice may just want to stay on in Manchester if he plans to attend in person. Photo byRice has received plenty of recognition on all fronts for his performances throughout the 2024/25 campaign. The Arsenal fans named him their Player of the Season, the Football Writers' Association put him in their top-four picks for Footballer of the Year, and the Premier League nominated him in their top eight for Player of the Season. Advertisement Now the players have also recognised Rice's displays with their own nomination through the PFA. Photo byRice made 52 appearances for Arsenal this season, scoring nine goals and assisting a further 10 in all competitions. That included 11 direct goal contributions in the Premier League, breaking double figures for the second season running – a feat he never achieved at former club West Ham United. Salah is surely the favourite for the PFA award, having already won the Premier League's Player of the Season award and the FWA's Footballer of the Year award. But all parties are evidently in agreement that Rice was one of the other outstanding performers in English football in 2024/25.

Ollie Pope century leads England fightback against India at Headingley
LEEDS, England (AP) — Ollie Pope and his latest century spearheaded England to 209-3 after India was bowled out for 471 on day two Saturday of the test series opener at Headingley. Pope was 100 not out and the leading scorer as England slashed its deficit to 262 runs by stumps and won the day. Advertisement Pope was far from perfect. He survived a testing opening spell from speedster Jasprit Bumrah in gloomy bowler-friendly conditions, narrowly avoided lbw on 34 and was dropped on 60. He rode his luck to his ninth test hundred and second against India. Bumrah was England's greatest threat as expected and took all three home wickets: Zac Crawley in the first over; Ben Duckett on 62 to break his and Pope's 122-run second-wicket partnership; and Joe Root on 28 to break his and Pope's 80-run third-wicket partnership. Bumrah would have had a fourth wicket in the day's last over — Harry Brook without scoring — but he overstepped for the third time in the over. The world's best fast bowler was also the victim of two dropped catches in the field. Advertisement England wasn't expected to be batting soon after lunch. India was 430-3 about half an hour before lunch. A total of at least 550 was on the cards but the demise of captain Shubman Gill for 147 sparked a collapse of 41-7 in 68 balls bridging lunch. ___ AP cricket: The Associated Press
